Other random things of note
  • Voice Patcher is highly recommended. Without it, a small portion of their lines will be unused.
  • A handful of events are not covered, and some events are only covered by some of the voices. I tried to compensate for this by supporting some Voice Patcher events.
  • Gendarmerie and Guerilla Warfare has more lines with more variation than any of the others since those voices were added later in CS:GOs life cycle.
  • Some voice lines are exclusive to modded abilities that involve commanding the squad (Oscar Mike, Get Some, Incoming). For those that don't like Long War or its classes, I reccommend using LordAbizi's Battlefield Leadership Training in conjunction with this mod.
  • Hacking and psionic abilities mainly use generic 'Affirmative' lines with some exceptions.
  • Separatist will sometimes refer to a killed target as a sniper. This is because I felt those lines were too good to exclude. "I have taught our sniper friend a lesson."
  • Phoenix and Phoenix Coop have almost identical scripts, just different VAs. Because of this, you can expect their voice line selection here to be near-identical as well.
  • Phoenix Co-op is split into two variants, one with a radio filter, and one without.
  • I still included the clips of the voices where they sometimes speak in their native language. You will notice this the most with Gendarmerie Nationale as they often exclaim in their native tongue, often-wise profanity.
  • Knowing that a lot of the cues in CS:GO don't really have an equivalent in XCOM 2, I had to reasign many clips to things that the line could still denote (as per usual). You may be wondering how I did this for lines that are in languages that I don't speak. For some translations, I used the CS:GO wiki, others I ended up using an audio transcriber to get the lines into text and ran it through a machine translator.
  • The language for the Elite Crew and Guerilla Warfare voices in the config is set to Arabic. Again, the game will most likely ignore this because the language isn't covered by the base game. Mods could still potentially make use of it though.
  • The language for the Balkan voice in the config is set to Russian. While the name of the faction likely implied them to be a terrorist group in the Balkans, they could easily represent any Terrorist group located in Eastern Europe. Plus, there are many different languages spoken in the Balkans, but the only line that the voice has that isn't in English is "спаси́бо", which is Russian for "thank you". Russian is not a major language in any Balkan nation. This info is taken from the Counter Strike wiki. This is also the reason why the voice is labelled as 'Eastern European English' instead of 'Balkan English'.
  • Lastly, I don't actually play Counter Strike, so I may not have done these voices the justice they deserved.
